I am posting a problem that I had in case any one else is having the same issues. Asterisk was not loading and has not been loading for quite some time. Here is a list of the errors that I was getting when trying to load asterisk.

sudo dpkg -l libvpb* libvpb0 4.2.32-1 so, I not entirely sure if this is only an issue for me, but for me this is completely reproducible. I can cause asterisk to core dump by committing out the fix above. I am still testing to see if there is any fall out from this fix, but at least I am able to get asterisk to register with Broadvoice.

I was wondering if someone could shed some light on the subject of adding new device templates. With the new involvement of pluto, does this mean that the bundled sqlcvs application within the admin site will now be useful for added new device templates.

I am asking because I have finally finished my device template for LG LCD TVs and I am not sure the best method of getting it added to the list of device templates. I also have a pnp script, but as many of you are aware it requires the device template id and currently this points only to my systems template number.

I followed the instruction on the Known issues page and ran the pre-upgrade.sh and post-upgrade.sh scripts for asterisk. Everything appears to be correct due to the presence of my prior phone book, but I can not figure out how to log into check my voicemail via Telecom>My Voicemail on the Admin site. In previous versions, this would automatically pop up to the user logged in, but since upgrading it asks for Login and password with instructions to use the same as you would use from a phone.

My Mailbox is 301 Password (PIN)

does not work.

I know this is correct, because I am able to change my user PIN without any issues. I am not exactly sure what login and password it is asking for. Anyone else able to log in after upgrading.

Is any one else seeing this and if so is there a simple way to get these to update. I even did a router reload and although the firewall page has the new rule listed, it is not listed on the iptables -L output.

I also have a PNP script to Detect LG LCD tv's of various models, but I have been reluctant to post about it due to this inability to control TV in timely manner. I know that all codes are correct. The last problem I have been trying to figure out is that it if I wait a few seconds between Remote Control Inputs the commands are sent immediately, but if I try to repeat commands there is a few second pause before the commands are executed. Obviously this is a challenge for LiveTV which is the last barrier for my wife to switch completely to LMCE.

I am also seeing the same types of messages from UIRT-USB logs if that makes an difference.

My core keeps trying to install Pluto VideoLAN Server, but I do not see any package for it. when i apt-cache search for pluto or videolan I do not see the package. I checked to deb-cache on the 0704 CDS, and i do not see it in those packages as well. I do however see it as still listed under src in the download able sources tar file. Is any one else running into this problem? It does not really seem to be hindering the performance other than I repeated see the Downloading Pluto VideoLAN Server box pop up on screen to then be followed by Problem downloading Pluto VideoLAN Server box.

It is my understanding that this is needed to use the follow me feature, but since I do not use this feature, I may not be seeing the issue.

It is basically under my stairs and I do not use it for media playback, although I would like to use it for ripping DVD's and CD's. Unfortunately, this is not happening and the longest time I could not figure out why, but I think I have figured out why.

The App_Server on the core is failing to start. the logs where no help as they just say.

The server has no sound card and I have no additional sound cards to insert, so I was wondering if there is a way to not have the App_Server check or to trick LinuxMCE into thinking there is a sound card. This may not be possible, and I may have to go get a card to put into the box, but I would rather not since I will never be using the box for anything which needs sound(which is why I did not get a server with sound built in). Any help would be appreciated.

I have also been having problems with asterisk which I believe is related. I have to manually start Asterisk after every reload of the router.

I have been watching the mythtv mailing list, and a significant change is in the works concerning the way guide data is received. The normal guide data services is canceling service starting 9/1/2007. The mythtv and xmltv guys have started a new service called http://www.schedulesdirect.org/ this service is supposed to take the place of the datadirect service currently in use.

I also noticed that a recent SVN commit added this new guide data into the --fixes branch, which is the current branch used in LinuxMCE (I believe).

This new service is not free, but does require a subscription. unfortunately there does not appear to be many other options for North American users.

Any word on updating mythtv to the most recent --fixes branch so we can utilize this service if we desire.

I have broadvoice, and I have every thing up and running, but I still have 2 problems one of which is very simple and the other may be related to the first.

1. Can someone please post what is in the custom app box in the AMP web setup under inbound routing. Advanced>Configuration>Phone Setup which opens AMP the select Setup and then select Inbound Routing and then select the proper incoming trunk. I accidentally deleted the text in this box and I can not find it any where.

2. Incoming callers hear no ringing. This may be related to number 1, so any help on number one would be greatly appreciated.

I ran into this issue and it appears to be a hold over from the old pluto days. Below is a copy of the note I added to a bug report regarding this issue. make the changes on any already created MD's /etc/smb.conf file and then make the changes below on the core, as the core uses these files to create the files for any new MD's

I thinks this related to the workgroup still being labeled as pluto in the following templates. /usr/pluto/templates/smb.conf.tmpl and /usr/pluto/templates/smb.conf.template. I changed this files to and the second MD that I added was set up in the LinuxMCE workgroup without any additional work. I am sure that there are going to be lots of little hold overs from pluto. Here is my diff for smb.conf.template.

I was having a lot of issues with getting a Windows MCE IR receiver working. In the past is was automatically install once you selected the mceusb2 Receiver from admin site but since 704 I could not get it install I kept getting lirc_mceusb2 module not found.

It turns out that I had to manually do a depmod -ae then modprobed lirc_mceusb2 and finally it started working.

I have ran into a small issue. When i insert a dvd to play, it fails with a warning that DVD CSS is not installed. However, the setup wizard indicates that it is installed as well as apt-get, but for some reason it will not let me play back dvd's.

Also, this is a media director as I do not use the Core for Media Playback, but it is a hybrid installation.

I have a freenas box which I have used since starting with PlutoHome without problems, but starting with RC1 and with this latest release 704. I can not get the share mounted. I have been digging to try and get to the bottom of this and I have found something that I need clarification on. I have found some SQL code that seems wrong to me, but as I am not a SQL person. I was hoping someone else with more experience would confirm this or point me in the proper direction.

## Get the ip address of the parent (computer or nas that has the share) Q=" SELECT Parent.IPAddress FROM Device Child LEFT JOIN Device Parent ON Parent.PK_Device = Child.FK_Device_ControlledVia WHERE Child.PK_Device = '$StorageDevice' LIMIT 1 "

However if you take this code and run it in phpmyadmin for the StorageDevice (91) created by Linuxmce for the NAS Share it always returns the Core IPAddress which is obviously not he IPAddress of the FreeNAS box controlling the shares.

If I change the script as follows: (change Parent to Child in the first SELECT line)

## Get the ip address of the parent (computer or nas that has the share) Q=" SELECT Child.IPAddress FROM Device Child LEFT JOIN Device Parent ON Parent.PK_Device = Child.FK_Device_ControlledVia WHERE Child.PK_Device = '$StorageDevice' LIMIT 1 "

It returns the correct address and it appears to fix the problem, but I was hoping someone smarter than I, could confirm that this is indeed correct or am I just getting lucky with this switch.
